The Super-Highway To Serfdom

“We are going to impose our agenda on the coverage by dealing with issues and subjects that we choose to deal with.” Richard M. Cohen, Senior Producer of CBS political news.

Am I the only one who doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the Biggest Loser or the Kardashians? Am I the only one who sees the irony of obesity being a sign of poverty in this country?
Have a good Christmas for I suspect it could well be the last we have as an “American” family. I fear the concept of America in a year will be unrecognizable. It will be our fault.
Why?
Because we sat on the couch and ignored all the warning signs. We somehow thought that when George HW Bush declared the New World Order at the UN in 1989, it was all just sloganeering.
It wasn’t.
Sweet Jesus, he meant it. It’s not coming soon to a theater near you, it’s here under the guise of “sustainability.”

I recall the last Christmas dinner my mother and I had as a family (dysfunctional as hell, but a family such as it was). We were sitting at the dining room table, when as in so many times, my mother leaned over to my ex-wife and all but whispered, “It’s the International Zionists who are behind this.”
For a reason inexplicable to anyone there (I was sober as a judge. Now round these parts, that does not mean much, but you get the point), I said, “Mommy, given that everything you said is actually true, what in the hell do you want me to do about it? “
The chill that enveloped the room brought to mind the iconic picture of the North wind, a puffy icy cloud blowing the gelid wind. The thaw began in April and lasted for the rest of her life. We never spoke of it, again.
The more I delved into Agenda 21, separating the wheat from the chaff, I had the feeling I did that Christmas afternoon… WTF! as some are wont to say.
In the past three weeks, I have slogged through thousands of pages — hundreds of websites and several books about something called Agenda 21. There is a lot of crazy talk going on out in cyberspace.
I grew up in a household where everything was the result of the machinations of the International Zionist Conspiracy. Huh. Who knew?
I have held a jaundiced about conspiracies and the “new world order.” I believe Oswald shot Kennedy. Period. We landed on the moon. A virulent form of Islamo-fascism crashed and burned the towers, the Pentagon and our national psyche.
I studied political philosophy at George Washington University. Thus it was in 1974 that I came across a mission statement from the Council on Foreign Relations Journal that read, “The new world order will be built… an end run around national sovereignty eroding it piece by piece will accomplish it much more than the old fashioned frontal assault.”
\ I read that, remarked, “good luck with that,” and went out, got A’s, got drunk, lucky and went on my merry way.
On September 11, 1990, I watched George Herbert Walker Bush tell the UN General Assembly, “Out of these troubled times, our objective—a new world order—can emerge. Today, that new world is struggling to be born, a world quite different from the one we have known.”
Huh. I gave three more tours, then went to 82 Queen and got drunk.

So how did I get to the place I am now? Why are you just now hearing about it?
Because I’m still learning about it.
It all started at a 9/12 meeting in early June of this year. As a fledgling mayoral candidate, my team (made up of progressives for the most part) thought it best I speak to small groups with whom I might have sympathy. This was my first speech.

People don’t realize the precision and practice it takes – my every word, my every nuance was played and replayed by famed South Carolina and Hollywood (CA) director Franklin Ashley and a very bright young woman I brought up from Triple A to pitch named Monica Biddix. I promise, I will get to the whole mayor thing by New Years, God willing. Sorry, it takes a sec to step back and figure out what hit me because I was blind-sided on a couple of levels.
Not that night, though. No, we were down with knocking it over the Green Monster in that small meeting room on the road to Patriot’s Point. As I drove over my cousin’s bridge, the early summer sun flitting over the harbor, my heart was in my throat. I was listening to the Critic and singing along to eclectic rock and roll.
I pulled into the restaurant on Patriot’s Point Road. I gotta tell you, I probably gave 20 speeches during the campaign, and it never got easier. I met the chairman, Kathy Hughes. At one point before the meeting started, she asked me if I had ever heard of Agenda 21.
No.
The meeting started and I gave the speech of my career. The hat was passed and was full by the time I finished.
The good thing about being a candidate means you get to leave before the real meeting starts. I had to go to a Piccolo affair downtown. Kathy stopped me one more time. Agenda 21.
I went to the affair in North Central, and as I mixed around three different people told me that Joe Riley was a member of Agenda 21. They began to say, UN, new world order, etc. Crazy talk.
The next morning, I was swimming laps and felt fantastic. For the first time in the campaign, I thought, “I can do this.”
It was one of the top 10 days in my life until it wasn’t. Five hours later, I had my first of 60 radiation treatments scheduled for invasive skin cancer.
Long summer.
Between the treatments and my wretched fundraising ability, the last thing on my mind was a UN-funded project to dominate our entire world. In late summer, I met with a member of Citizens For a Better Charleston. I was pat on the head and sent on my own merry way.
I know the whole story and will tell it later. The thing is if these morons couldn’t keep a secret, how could a global organization stay hidden?
They haven’t. They have invaded every aspect of our lives, and we have embraced it.

Earlier in the campaign, before every statement was crafted, someone alerted me about Mayors Against Illegal Guns of which Joe is a member. It is gun control with teeth and I wrote about it.

<ahref="” target=”_blank”>

As the campaign wore on, the Eliza Doolittle transformation was effected, the chimera of political candidacy that Franklin intended materialized (David Farrow: Candidate) I stayed with three major issues, and I believe they were good ones. Nowhere did Agenda 21 arise.
Until it did.
My campaign had a Facebook forum every Thursday night for three months. In late October, people began to message me. What about Agenda 21? Thinking that it might be a Hail Mary, I mentioned it to my staff — not a chance. If you pay people for advice, take it.
Election night sucked. I knew I’d lose. I had no idea I’d get taken behind the building and have living crap beat out of me. Many friends told me I defined the debate. So be it.
(I’ll probably note this again, but if as many people voted for me as they said they did, I would have beat Gregorie. It’s either voter fraud or bullshit. I’m leaning toward the latter.)
My girlfriend left Saturday, and I was off to Maine in a week and a half, so there was a little mopping up to do. The weekend before I left, for lack of anything better to do, I began to research Agenda 21.
There’s a lot of whacky stuff out there: FEMA concentration camps, etc. One might imagine, I viewed it all with a jaundiced eye.
Then I read a book called Agenda 21: An Expose of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Initiative and the Forfeiture of American Sovereignty by Ron Taylor, a former UN cheerleader for the project. Taylor explains that his ardor was dampened as he realized that while sustainability sounded good, it involved the dumbing down of our children and a kind of Fabian Socialism that has crept into general acceptance. Agenda 21 calls for the “smartest people in the room” making global decisions about what we eat, where we live and on and on.
It’s real.
Here’s a UN Chart that shows how far they’ve gone.

I am confronted by the International Zionist Conspiracy conundrum, although this time I have proof.
Take a look at this map from the UN.

Now look where the Keystone pipleline is supposed to be.
“
Hell of a coincidence.
This is real.
What am I going to do about it?
I’m not sure. Everything they purported is coming true. Do I really want to take on the most powerful people in the world.?
Just by saying what I am here, I can be declared a terrorist by Homeland Security. Extreme? Nuts?
Under the ‘worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial’ provision of S.1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, which passed 97-3 on the Senate floor Tuesday, December 6, the legislation basically says in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield,, according to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who voted for the bill.
Given that the Department of Homeland Security has characterized behavior such as buying gold, owning guns, using a watch or binoculars, donating to charity, using the telephone or email to find information, using cash, and all manner of mundane behaviors as potential indicators of domestic terrorism, this provision will wide open to abuse.
This is world socialism run amok.
This is not what we signed up for – Republican, Democrat, Tea Party, OWS. This is Fabian Socialism – politically correct speech, the “green” agenda, the omission of civics, the lack of understanding of natural law – like a frog on a slow boil, we watched it happen. We don’t care. Give us enough to eat. Let us have E and Style and HSN. Let’s really spend a lot of time on obesity. Jesus, we cancelled gym, you morons.
Instead, common sense got driven into the dirt. The tyranny of diversity destroyed the fabric of the country.
We turn to MTV and the Kardasheans (I still have no idea who these people are or why I should give a rat’s ass.) for advice and soul mentoring.
Christianity is under full assault. Of course Christians have done little to further their case, but we were founded as a Christian nation. I’m good with that. I think a system that recognizes the venality of mankind and channels it into a positive beacon of hope with unimagined prosperity is something to strive for. Just saying.
Our system is so corrupt. I got a fine lesson in that. We are under the illusion we can change things. Not without a shitload of money and influence.
I have neither. I just happen to be an obscure writer from Charleston who has stumbled onto what he believes is the truth. I have just gone through 10 arduous years. The last was a struggle.
So my work here is done. I’m off to romance my keyboard and my girlfriend for the rest of my life.
Agenda 21. The International Zionist Conspiracy . What the hell can I do about it?
I’ve done it.
Check it out for yourself.
Or not.
Say, did you catch Christine Aguilera on the Voice?

I know. Crazy talk:

“Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is force! Like fire, it a dangerous servant and a fearful master.” George Washington.

“Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have.” Richard Salent, former president, CBS News

1. Under the new and improved Patriot Act: According to the ACLU, the NSA has reinstituted its “Total Information Awareness” domestic-spying program that was banned by Congress in 2003. Congress has done nothing to prevent this recent activity. They must first prove that the NSA is doing the activity, and the NSA is really not into divulging its activities to Congress. Even though oversight committees exist, the NSA holds 22 levels of security clearances above the president or anyone in Congress. If Congress wants to know what the NSA is doing, they have to find out by other means than asking the NSA.

2. HR 1955 targets U.S. citizens, defines thought crimes as “homegrown terrorism” and cites the Internet as aiding “in facilitating violent radicalization, ideologically based violence, and the homegrown terrorism process.
3. HR 1528 requires you to spy on your neighbors. Refusal would be punishable by a mandatory prison sentence of at least two years.

4. My blog could be declared a “subversive activity”.

A Short Timeline For the New World Order

“Under Socialism you would not be allowed to be poor. You would be forcibly fed, clothed, lodged, taught, and employed whether you liked it or not. If it were discovered that you had not the character and industry enough to be worth all this trouble, you might possibly be executed in a kindly manner. . . .” Fabian Socialist Bernard Shaw in his Intelligent Woman’s Guide to Socialism and Capitalism, 1928.

“We shall have world government whether or not we like it. The only question is whether worldwide government shall be achieved by conquest or consent,” Paul Wharburg. Council on Foreign Relations, and architect of the Federal Reserve System, address to the US Senate 2/17/1950

“To defend the New World Order, US soldiers will have to kill and die.” Arthur Schlesinger Jr.

“The case for government by elites is irrefutable.” Senator William Fulbright, Former chairman of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, stated at a 1963 symposium entitled: The Elite and the Electorate – Is Government by the People Possible?

“The United Nations, he told an audience at Harvard University, ‘has not been able–nor can it be able–to shape a new world order which events so compellingly demand.’ … The new world order that will answer economic, military, and political problems, he said, ‘urgently requires, I believe, that the United States take the leadership among all free peoples to make the underlying concepts and aspirations of national sovereignty truly meaningful through the federal approach.”
Gov. Nelson Rockefeller of New York, in an article entitled “Rockefeller Bids Free Lands Unite: Calls at Harvard for Drive to Build New World Order” — The New York Times (February 1962)

“Who controls money, controls the world. Henry Kissinger, Council on foreign relations, 1973

“Since March 9, 1933, the United States has been in a state of national emergency. A majority of the people of the United States have their lives under emergency rule. For 40 years (now 79 years) freedoms and governmental procedures, guaranteed by the Constitution have, in varying degrees, been abridged by laws brought forth by states of national emergency.” Senate Report 93-549 (1973).

“If instant world government, Charter review, and a greatly strengthened International Court do not provide the answers, what hope for progress is there? The answer will not satisfy those who seek simple solutions to complex problems, but it comes down essentially to this: The hope for the foreseeable lies, not in building up a few ambitious central institutions of universal membership and general jurisdiction as was envisaged at the end of the last war, but rather in the much more decentralized, disorderly and pragmatic process of inventing or adapting institutions of limited jurisdiction and selected membership to deal with specific problems on a case-by-case basis … In short, the ‘house of world order’ will have to be built from the bottom up rather than from the top down. It will look like a great ‘booming, buzzing confusion,’ to use William James’ famous description of reality, but an end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, will accomplish much more than the old-fashioned frontal assault.”
Richard N. Gardner, in Foreign Affairs (April 1974)

In 1979, then Senator Barry Goldwater wrote the following warning about the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) in his book, With No Apologies:
“The CFR is composed of … most elite names in the world of government, labor, business, finance communication, the foundations, and academies. It has staffed almost every key position of every administration since that of FDR.
“A number of writers disturbed by the influential role that this organization has played in determining foreign policy have concluded that the Council of Foreign Relations and its members are an active part of the communist conspiracy for world domination…. Many of the policies advocated by the CFR have been damaging to the cause of freedom and particularly to the United States, but this is not because the members are communist or communist sympathizers. This explanation of our foreign policy reversals is too pat, too simplistic.
“I believe the Council on Foreign Relations and its ancillary elitist groups are indifferent to communism. They have no ideological anchors. In their pursuit of a New World Order [World Government] they are prepared to deal without prejudice with a communist state, a socialist state, a democratic state, monarchy, oligarchy — it’s all the same to them.
“Our government in Washington now is a horrible bureaucratic mess. It is disorganized, wasteful, has no purpose, and its policies — when they exist — are incomprehensible or devised by special interest groups with little or no regard for the welfare of the average American citizen…”

1990 – Mikhail Gorbachev quoted in Washington Post Feb 25 1990 “…A new world order is taking shape so fast that governments are well as private citizens find it difficult just to absorb the gallop of events…..”

“I think what’s at stake here is the new world order….a reinvigorated United Nations.” -Jan 7 1991 George HW Bush

1992 – July 20 Time magazine published “The Birth of the Global Nation” by Strobe Talbott (Rhodes scholar roommate of Bill Clinton at Oxford University, CFR director, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace board of directors member from a wealthy Ohio investment banking family), in which he writes: All countries are basically social arrangements….No matter how permanent or even sacred they may seem at any one time, in fact they are all artificial and temporary….Perhaps national sovereignty wasn’t such a great idea after all….But it has taken the events in our own wondrous and terrible century to clinch the case for world government.”

1992 – August 26: The New York Times publishes “The World Needs an Army on Call” by U.S. Senator David Boren (Rhodes Scholar 1963, CFR member, and member of “Skull and Bones”) in which he states: “In the aftermath of World War II, President Truman wanted to empower the United Nations to create a new world order….Richard Gardner proposes that forty to fifty member nations contribute to a rapid-deployment force of one hundred thousand volunteers that could train under common leadership….It is time for us to create such a force….The existence of such a force would go a long way toward making the “new world order” more than just a slogan.”

1993 – July 18: CFR member and Henry Kissinger writes in The Los Angeles Times concerning NAFTA: “What Congress will have before it is not a conventional trade agreement but the architecture of a new international system….a first step toward a new world order.”

1994 – World Federalist Association (UN Organization) published The Genius of Federation: Why World Federation Is the Answer to Global Problems, which will stated, “Let the U.N. establish new agencies such as an International Criminal Court….National sovereignty would be gradually eroded until it is no longer an issue. Eventually a world federation can be formally adopted with little resistance.”

1994 – April 14: Americans are killed as a result of a “friendly fire” attack while patrolling over Iraq, and Vice-President Al Gore refers to them as “those who died in the service of the United Nations.”

1994 – May 3: President Clinton signs Presidential Decision Directive 25, which strengthens the U.N. and describes how American soldiers will serve under foreign commanders. PDD25 will only be released to top administration officials and a few member of Congress, the general public is refused access.

1995 – The report, “Our Global Neighborhood,” by The Commission on Global Governance (partly funded by the U.N. Development Program and endorsed by the U.N. Secretary-General) is released, and states: “A new world order must be organized….Global governance is the way we manage global affairs….nations have to accept that in certain fields, sovereignty has to be exercised collectively….We need to accept that there may be circumstances within countries when the security of people is so severely violated that external intervention becomes justified. We propose that the U.N. Charter be amended to permit intervention in such circumstances….We believe that there is a need for a highly trained U.N. Volunteer (military) Force….Accelerated progress must be made toward demilitarizing the international society…We strongly endorse community initiatives to …encourage the disarming of civilians….”

1996 – A Reporter’s Life by Walter Cronkite is published, in which he proclaims: ” if we are to avoid catastrophe, a system of world order–preferably a system of world government –is mandatory. The proud nations someday will ….yield up their precious sovereignty.”

1996 – May 11 Journalist Joan Veon interviews David C. Korten, author of When Corporations Rule the World (1995) and former Ford Foundation project specialist in Manila. In this interview, Korten claims that: “the World Trade Organization is creating a world government in which one organization which is totally unelected, wholly secretive….with the power to virtually override and local or national laws if those in any way inconvenience global corporations….It was a terrible shock (to those of us who supported Bill Clinton) when Clinton came in and GATT and NAFTA became the centerpieces of his policy….And in a sense, there was almost a seamless transition from President Bush to President Clinton in that regard….Our democracy has been rendered meaningless by big money. The truth is there are politicians (who) are owned lock, stock and barrel by the big money interests….Our elections create, to some extent, a facade of choice.”

1996 – October 23: On “The Charlie Rose Show” on the Public Broadcasting System, Mikhail Gorbachev states: “We are part of the Cosmos. Cosmos is my God. Nature is my God….The future society will be a totally new civilization which will synthesize the experience of Socialism and Capitalism….”

2001 – “There is a chance for the President of the United States to use this (9-11) disaster to carry out … a new world order.” (Gary Hart, at a televised meeting organized by the CFR in Washington, D.C. Sept 14.)

“You are a slow learner, Winston,” said O’Brien gently.

“How can I help it?” he blubbered. “How can I help seeing what is in front of my eyes? Two and two are four.”

“Sometimes, Winston. Sometimes they are five. Sometimes they are three. Sometimes they are all of them at once. You must try harder. It is not easy to become sane.”

George Orwell, Nineteen-Eighty Four (1948)

“But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.”

George Orwell, Ninteen-Eighty Four (1948)
